About this photo
Marilyn Monroe the streets of New York, 1956
This photograph captures Marilyn Monroe her stay in New York in 1956, a time when the actress was studying at Lee Strasberg’s Actors Studio to hone her acting skills. Taken by a set photographer in the 1950s, this image reveals a more intimate side of the Hollywood icon, far from the movie sets and the spotlight of Beverly Hills.
The year 1956 marked a turning point in Monroe's career, between the success of "Bus Stop," which grossed $4.25 million at the box office, and her tumultuous relationship with Arthur Miller. This period in New York immediately preceded the filming of Billy Wilder’s “Some Like It Hot,” which would go on to become one of the biggest comedy hits in American cinema, grossing $25 million.
A glimpse into the private life of the greatest icon of American cinema.
